Although our subtype-specific survival curves did not reach statistical significance (p=0.12), their trends match larger datasets of basal-like (triple-negative) tumors recur earlier and more frequently, whereas luminal and HER2-enriched subtypes exhibit more durable control [ 13 ].
In our multivariable model, a nonsignificant trend toward higher risk with mastectomy (HR: 2.27, p=0.50) further supports that the extent of resection alone does not drive survival.
